Have a USB wireless WiFi unit. To connect to the Internet. Have to disable the Local Area Connection. When connected to the Internet. If I enable the Local Area Connection. Unable to connect to the Internet. When I disable the LAC, the Internet connection is restablished. Using a D-Link boradband VPN router.

A:Wireless Network Connection will only connect to Internet if Lcl Area Connect disable

sounds about right! Your big issue will be the VPN, as it is frequently specifically
config'd to use a specific adaptor AND to force all tcp traffic thru that connection,
even though you want to do some trivial google.com search.

Consider using a Hardware Profile to define
1) a LAN connection environment (ie no WiFi)
2) a WiFi environment (w/o a LAN)

the choice occurs at boot time and the hardware is enabled/disabled per
the profile.

How far away from your computers is the router? Also; have you tried to power cycle the modem and router? If not; i would try that. Unplug both the modem and router; wait about a minute; then plug in the modem first; let that boot; then plug the router back in and let that boot. Try doing that and see if it helps the situation.

Hello,I am having trouble getting the built-in wireless adapter on this laptop to get connected to the internet. I have installed the following driver:http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/migr-73611but have had no luck. there are no available wireless connections I can connect to. I have also tried to use USB wireless adapter TP-LINK TL-WN725N to connect to internet. It is able to find available connections but when it tries to connect it says unable to connect and give options to troubleshoot. Once troubleshoot is complete it says to investigate router or access point issues. I have reset the router many times. Other devices are working fine with the internet just not this laptop.I am running windows 7 64Bit.Please help.Thanks

A:Lenovo Thinkpad T410 wireless issue

Can you connect the laptop to the router using a cable at all ?

using just the laptop wireless adapter unlikely to be this as it is reporting NO networks available - but check anyway pleaseCheck the wireless is switched ON theres often a physical switch or a combination of the FN and one of the F keys to toggle the wireless on/off often F2 is used - but note , not always - look for a symbol that looks a little like (( i ))

I I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and since then I have had a problem connecting to the internet with IE8. connection to internet via the wireless router is ok as virus etc is updating, but every tim I try and open IE I get the message Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage, then the option for Diagnose problems is offered, I have clicked this and still no joy. I have also reset IE.

Have you tried any other browsers? SeaMonkey is a good one to try if you don't have another. You can still keep IE as default and have SeaMonkey for backup for web pages that may not display correctly in IE or when you have access problems like you are having now. Being Mozilla-based, it uses a different rendering engine. For those web sites that support pipelining, you may also find that it is considerably faster.

I'm trying to connect to a wireless network with a laptop. It required a network key, so I went on the one laptop used regularly in the place and used to configure it and turned off the encryption. I am now posting this from the desktop which is still connected. My laptop indicates it's connected but won't receive any data. Ping shows "destination host unreachable" and 100% loss.

i have a wireless network and i am using the Belkin G Plus Mimo Router along with a Wireless G usb Network Adapter, when i start my computer i get a connection at 11mbps even tho i have a capability of 54mbps. Then after 5 or 10 mins the network says limited or no connectivity so i open my wireless connection click connect. I enter my netkey and it says waiting for network. after searching for around 3 mins it stops waiting for the network and the screen says searching for wireless networks and im back where i started. i have network authentication (WPA-PSK) and the data encryption is AES.

There are 2 computers connected to the router wirelessly and 0 computers connected via ethernet cable if that helps, and they both use windows xp.

can someone please help asap! im stuck!

A:Can't connect to Wireless Network

and welcome to the Forum

I moved your thread to the Networking Forum.

First:

Power Cycle everything . . Turn off the Modem, router and all pc's . . turn on the Modem and wait a few minutes for the lights to stabilize . . then turn on the router, then one pc at a time. See if you connect to the internet.

Then:

Remove all the stored wireless network profiles and search for the network again.

How to Remove Stored Wireless Network Profiles for XP, Vista, and Windows 7

with the pc connected to the router, Click on Start . . Run . . type CMD

At the > prompt type type the following command: IPCONFIG /ALL

Note that there is a space before the /ALL, but there is NOT a space after the / in the following command.

Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter. Come back here and Paste the results in a message.

If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.

then please Download and run this Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector, click the Networks link on the upper left and paste a screen shot of that screen here. Note that this application requires NET Framework to run. If you get an error about a missing function, download and install NET Framework.

To post a screen shot of the active window, hold the Alt key and press the PrtScn key. Open the Windows PAINT application and Paste the screen shot. You can then use PAINT to trim to suit, and save it as a JPG format file. To upload it to the forum, open the full reply window and use the Manage Attachments button to upload it here.

Usually I open Change adapter settings, disable Wireless Network Connection, and then enabled it again. It took some minutes but it worked when I did that.

However, it's not working anymore. My laptop indicates that it's connected to the wireless but it's not. Disable-->Enable does not work. So I restart or shutdown and turn the computer back on. But it usually doesn't connect to the network at a single attempt, so I have to restart/shutdown 2-3 times until my laptop is finally connected to the wireless network. It's getting pretty annoying.

I have Windows 7 Home Premium. The other day, I restarted my computer and now it won't connect to any networks. It sees the connections just fine, but whenever I try to connect to mine, it says something like "Unable to connect to [WIRELESS NAME]". I'm not sure what to do. Any help is appreciated!Thanks in advance!

A:Wireless Won't Connect to Network?!

Additional information would be helpful.

What kind of router and have you verified that all is well with the configuration in the router's back end.

Have you run ipconfig in a command prompt and do you have an ip address and if so, what is it.

You can always reset your router to its default by holding the reset button.

We have 3 computers connected to our wanadoo wireless router. 2 run off special wireless adapters and the newest uses its own 'RT73 USB Wireless LAN card' All the computers used to be able to connect to the wireless signal.After Configuring the signal to use WEP encryption only the computer without the special wireless adapters can't connect. It can find the network and says 'limited or no connectivity'. I've tried clicking repair but it says it can't renew the IP address. I've tried reseting the router but it doesn't help.

A:Can't connect to wireless network

You need to configure that card to use the same WEP encryption configuration as the router.

And if your router supports it, WPA with a long, random passkey is much more secure than WEP.

Hi, I have an HP laptop and it was having Windows 8 installed. It was very slow therefore I installed windows 7. After the downgrade I am not able to Connect to LAn OR Wireless n/w. I think there are some drivers missing. Can anyone please suggest which drivers should I use?

I have lost all wireless connections on my lap top. My computer seems not to have any wireless connections available, although the wireless system is on and I can connect to it with other devises. This happened yesterday after I installed updates. I have also tried returning to the last restore point but that seems not to have worked.I have tried to the HP wireless assistant and that does not help matters.I have also tried going into the services settings and the WLAN auto config; this is where i find I get an error report Error 193:0xc1 Can anyone help with the next step pleaseP

I have a Dell D610 Laptop that I travel with. I always connect to various hotel and office wireless networks. I am in a hotel now where I can not see the network. I know it is here and my co woker is able to see it and connect to it, but it never shows up in my avaliable list. I know nothing is wrong with my laptop as I connected today at another hotel we had meetings at. What could possibly be the problem? I called Dell and they want to replace the wireless parts of the laptop. I am running XP.

Currently running compaq presario desktop pc (xp Athlon 2600+, 1024meg ram) and a compaq note book on a ethernet and wireless home network

The desktop is connnected to the net via netcomm 1300 adsl modem router and msi rg54gs wireless router. The connection to the router for the desk top is via ethernet from the msi wireless router. The compaq notebook (running xp) is configured and working.

I have also purchased a MSI PCI wireless card (pc54g2) and installed it and drivers on an old clunker Pentium 450 running win98 SE. I am now trying to connect this pc on to my home network via a wireless connection and I have no idea where to start.

Can it be done?

Any help would be appreciated

A:Connect a Win 98 pc to wireless network

[tsg=welcome]To TSG![/tsg]Yes, I should be able to be done with 98SE.

There should be a configuration utility for the card you installed the drivers for. First look in your start menu for the added entry, if not there...then open your control panel and then network for the card itself (properties)

I have an Acer All-In-One system using Windows 7. All of the sudden I cannot connect to the internet or my wireless printer. The system sees the wireless network but cannot connect. Please help! Thanks.

Is this an intermittent problem or will the machine not connect at all to wireless

whats the make and model of the PC

can we see an xirrus screen shot

Is this the only PC with a problem - do other devices connected work OK - if so how are they connected to the router - wireless or wired

have you tried connecting to the router by cable - does it work

I cannot connect to an wireless network. m y wireless adapter has disappeared from my Device manager list. I wo uld be grateful for any guidance. Thank you.

A:Can't connect to wireless network

If the wireless adapter has disappeared from the Device Manager, I'd be looking at reseating it in it's socket and checking if it's disabled in the BIOS. Are you SURE is isn't appearing in Other Devices as an unknown device?Hold the Windows key and press R, then type devmgmt.msc

Please respond to all the following steps.Under Network adapters, please tell me all the devices listed. Are there any devices under Network adapters that have a red x displayed?Also, are there any devices anywhere in the Device Manager display with yellow ? or ! displayed?

It would be best if you could post a screen shot of Device Manager with the Network adapters and Other devices sections expanded.

For some reason I now cannot connect to the wireless network in my house, everyone else can but me, however I can acess the internet by using a cable. I did a network diagnostic and it came up with a failed message by the IP address (request timed out), I also did an ipconfig and it said that the media was disconnected. Also I cannot change my home page from msn (not sure if that is related).

Any ideas on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

A:Cannot connect to wireless network

First, some information.

Please supply the following info, exact make and models of the equipment please.

My Vista Ultimate desktop can see my wireless network, but for whatever reason it is unable to connect to it. I tried system restore, and disabled windows firewall all to no avail. The only change that has been made since it worked to now it's not working is that I connected it to WIn7 homegroup (but it worked fine for 2 - 3 days being connected). Why won't it connect now?

My brother lives about 300 feet from my house and had a wireless network. He said I could get a wireless adaptor and be able to connect to the internet using his network. How is this done, what equipment would I need to purchase? I have an e-machines t1100 w/ windows xp, and currently have dial up.Thank you for any help.

A:How to connect to wireless network

You need to get a directional antenna and a wireless adapter. If he's line-of-sight, you should be OK, it'll be a bit more difficult if there are obstructions in the way. He can also help the situation on his end with a directional antenna and by positioning the router/antenna in the best location for you.

Neither my Win7 desktop nor my Macbook (running Win7) can connect to my wireless network. They see it - 5 bars - and try to connect, then say they can't and offer to start a troubleshooter, which is then unable to find the cause of the problem.

When the Macbook is booted into Mac OS (10.6) is connects fine, as does my Mac Mini - so it must be a Win 7 configuration issue. I have had "Connectify" running on both desktop and laptop but have uninstalled it from the desktop.

Any ideas ?

A:Win 7 Won't Connect To My Wireless Network, Mac OS Does

I'm sure you've already tried this but it doesn't hurt to clarify.

1.) Ensure you have Windows set to connect to the router the way the router is expecting to be connected to. (Example: If you have a G router, make sure your wireless adapter is set that way)2.) Ensure Windows has the correct WEP key (if you have WEP enabled on the router) and or a password to connect to your router.3.) Ensure your router isn't set to allow specific MAC ID's access, if it is set this way, add the MAC address of each of the Windows wireless cards. (This may not be an issue as the Macbook can connect through OSX. Technically, the MAC address is set at the hardware level so it wouldn't change regardless of OS.).4.) What kind of router is it? Should be able to research any issues regarding Windows 7 and that router.

Hi and welcome to seven forums

Probably just a driver issue. could you go into device manager (type device in search) and look at the network devices. You should have a NIC (for wired) and a wireless (wifi). Are both listed and working, or is there an unknown device with a yellow triangle?

The laptop at one point said it was connected but now it is still trying to aquire address.

I have WPA encryption. I checked the passkey on the laptop and I think it got changed somehow. As it does not have near as many characters in it as my passkey. I retyped the passkey and it would revert to the one with less characters.

I was going to reset the router to default but I can not get into it using 192.168.1.1 It is like the password to it was changed.

Is there a way to unplug and make everything go to default to start over?

I am at a loss what to do and wonder if somebody hacked into my network?

I have connected this hoc network but it always said no internet access...Arrrhhh!!!

A:how to connect a wireless ad hoc network??

Moving to Networking Forum for better results. Please Tell us a lot more information. Do you have a Wireless Router, or are you tethering a smart phone? Do you have access to the wireless router? Are you using a wireless USB adapter or using the onboard Wireless card? Run WiFi inspector to test your wireless connection and the wireless connection strength of the wireless access point.

I am having two laptops.Both have wifi and i want to successfully connect them to share files at a good descent speed.Few days ago i was able to connect both laptops successfully but was not able to share file as it said, network path does not exists.connected successfully with same settings such as WORKGROUP NAMEVALID IP ADRESSVALID DEFAULT GATEWAYSbut now i am not able to connect as it says "WINDOWS IS UNABLE TO CONNECT"it shows the preferred ad hoc name and signal strength as "Excellent".need a specific guide to connect them successfully.also i should be able to transfer files from 1 laptop to another.is there any alternative other than ad hoc network.Reply needed urgently.THANKS IN ADVANCE

A:Wireless Ad Hoc network does not connect

If you have a home router (Default gateway) and then connect both devices to the router you should be able to create a folder on one device and then configure sharing on it so that the other laptop can access it remotely.

I'm having a problem here. I'm having troubles connecting to my home wireless router after I reformatted my laptop (Acer Aspire 6935G). Before reformatting, i was still able to connect to it but now, i'm only able to locate my router, but not get access. I tried connecting to other wireless connection that I'm able to find around my residence and they will prompt me with a password to connect.

I have an Acer Aspire v5-571 running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, and I've been running into trouble connecting to my home's wireless network for the past couple days. It just says that my laptop is unable to connect. I've tried everything I can think of; I've reinstalled and updated all drivers from the Acer website, done system restores from weeks ago, installed all Windows updates, and I've even wiped my PC and reinstalled windows. Nothing has worked. I'd really appreciate some help on this ASAP.

my desktop is running Vista Home Premium and is connected to a Linksys WRT54GS router. My other vista home premium laptop can connect to my network no problem and very quickly, as it has a built in wireless card. But my old XP SP2 desktop cannot connect to my wireless network. It gets stuck at the "Acquiring Network Address" step and won't pass it. I have a Dynex&#8482; 802.11g Enhanced-G Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter. I have disabled the windows firewall and it still won't connect. I also tried connecting to my neighbors network which is unsecured with no password (just to test if it was my adapter) and it worked flawlessly. So what is wrong with my router that won't let my XP SP2 machine connect? Thanks for any help in advance

A:Can't connect to a wireless network I know is there

Hi ConfusedMuppet,

I am sure the problem is the conflict between the Dell wifi software and the Windows built-in wifi software. Try disabling the Dell wifi software and use the Windows built-in wifi software to connect wirelessly to the internet. Hope everything works out well for you.

My office currently runs and unsecured, unencrypted wireless network (I know, I know, I'm not in charge.) I sometimes use my personal laptop (XP/sp2) but can't connect to this network. The wireless card can see the network and the signal is excellent, but when I click on 'connect' it attempts for a while, hangs, and then returns to the 'available network' list (no errors or pop-ups, it just stops looking) and shows the network as 'available' and 'unsecured.'

Two days ago I installed a new hard-drive in my boss' Dell laptop, installed XP, and as soon as it booted it found the network and connected fine (no changing of settings at all.)

So I'm confused - I have two laptops sitting 3 feet from each other, running the same OS's, and an unsecure, unencrypted network, and only one connect.

Like others who have recently posted here I am also to Can't wireless network connect new to these forums And I am not at all computer savvy so I will try to explain my problem and provide the necessary details My laptop has had recent trouble connecting to the wireless network that I Can't connect to wireless network share with my neighbor It has worked regularly until two days ago when it began stalling on the quot Acquiring Network Address quot stage endlessly until I cancel the request As a test I ve tried connecting to other unsecured sites in the area to see if it s possible to connect to these but the result is the same My roommate also shares this connection and has had no trouble Thus I figure it s something with my computer Here are my details Model Dell Inspiron B Operating System Windows XP Network Adapter Intel R PRO Wireless BG To answer a few questions ahead of time I can not plug my laptop into a modem because the modem is inaccessible Also I have already attempted to disable the router several times What can I do from this point Thank you Kirstin nbsp

Help. I can't see my wireless network connection. I can see neighbours networks. Any help on this? Thanks.

A:Can't see/connect to my wireless network

Maybe the "wireless radio" option on your wired/wireless router is OFF for some reason. What is the brand/model of your router?

You should have instructions that came with the device. Check them, for the address of the router and userid/password, and other basic setup steps.

You can connect to your router using Firefox or IE, by entering its address (say, 192.168.1.1 for Netgear routers) and then entering the userid/password as the instructions tell you.

The basic wireless settings are in something like Setup -> wireless settings, and control security. This provides (a) wireless network ID name as it appears in the wireless scan for a network shown on laptops, i.e. SSID, (b) password to be entered by wireless laptops in order to log in to the router's wireless network, i.e. PASSPHRASE, and (c) security level option, and you should generally pick the highest, e.g. WPA2-PSK [AES].

The ON/OFF state of the whole wireless capability of your router is controlled in a second place, something like Advanced -> Wireless settings, in an item named "enable wireless router radio" or something like that. If unchecked, this will disable wireless functionality and limit the router to wired-only. This is good if you don't need wireless in your house and don't want your neighbors stealing access (assuming they could crack your userid/password and encryption). If checked, wireless functionality is enabled.

Note that even if wireless router radio IS checked, you can still suppress the broadcast of the SSID if you want to make your router's network "invisible" in your neighborhood. This is kind of a "stealth" setting, which facilitates wireless connections from YOUR laptop even though the SSID network name does NOT appear in the scan for wireless networks presented on a laptop. You can still stlil log in to the wireless network because you know both the SSID and userid/password for the network, even if the SSID does not show up on the list of wire less networks discovered by the laptop's scan. The router is facilitating this wireless connection, but "stealth".

You facilitate this "stealth wireless" mode by un-checking the "enable SSID broadcast" option, while still checking the "enable wireless router radio" option. But remember, your SSID wireless network name will NOT appear in the list of available wireless networks on the laptop (or any of your neighbor's laptops). So you'll have to manually enter that SSID information in the login dialog, manually.

Ok so wegot sky broadband a couple of weeks ago everything Cannot to wireless any network more connect working fine I use a laptop with a usb wireless adapter mbps and that was working fine but i thought that getting a pcmia card would be better as it d be less likely to break Cannot connect to wireless network any more got that through monday installed it yesterday and it briefly worked as i connected through the windows wireless program After that couldnt connect at all Reinstalled the usb one andagain that worked briefly but now neither work Reinstalled eachone countless times but nothing The network connection symbol always has a red X on it it doesnt even change toshow that its trying to connect when i do try to get on The PW is definitely correct but whatever program i use to try to get on the network nothing happens Ridiculous how the usb used to work and now neither of the adapters work The network is fine for everyone else in the house makes no sense Use XP if it helps nbsp

A:Cannot connect to wireless network any more

Interesting , but solveable.

Some PCMI cards are often not compatible with some security method's.

Windows Xp will run the adapter switch as an equation.
i will explain myself ...
If you had an Usb adapter running on WEP securities.
and suddenly you switch it with a PCMCI card , windows Xp Will automatically select the best configuration settings available in order to make the card work.
Wile the settings for your USB stick will be lost.

Most of the new PCMCI card that are being release proving to be dificult to connect them under a wep based security setting , wile they are most effective under WPA.

If you wish to restore your Settings for th USB stick....

you should go into your wireless connection properties and select view wireless networks , the go to change advanced settings and select the wireless networks tab that is located at the top of the window , Remove the saved configuration settings
the PCMCI card , then o ahead and plug you USB and set the password for your security method then connect to your network.

As for your PCMCI card...

Check your manual or your manufacturer's web site and verify if the card is compatible with WEP security , also check if there are any forums were you can check customer testimonies about the product as well...
(sometimes manufacturers like to brag by saying .. she can do this , wen she actually cant do ''squat'').

Now to make it work.. it is advise able to consider changing your security method to WPA , if the case is that you in fact have WEP only enabled ,
Just Remember to Remove all of your previews connection from your
Wireless Zero configuration before you begun the installation process of your PCMCI card.

Now if the same thing happens again then it may be a MAC address issue ,
Sometimes the routers MAC address wont accept the new hardwares MAC
adress , so what you do is ... you go to your windows XP run command and
type CMD , you will see a black window , then type the following command
''ipconfig /all'' and copy your new network adapters MAC adress , after
this , go into router web user interface (WUI) and check under your internet secction to see if your router support the Clone Mac address feature.

For more information about Security Method compatibility and MAC filtering compatibylities log on to www.USR.com.

A:How to connect wireless network

Buy your own access, we don't help people steal other folks access here. Maybe a reading of the TSG Rules you seem to have missed on your way in would help.

This is a random issue, sometimes I can connect just fine, and usually a restart of my laptop lets me connect.

However sometimes when I try to enter the password it does not work. I get the error message 'the network security key is not correct. Please try again.'

I know for a fact that my password is correct, and sometimes it works, allowing me to choose whether I want to 'find PC's, devices and content on this network' etc.

Regardless of whether I click yes or no at this point I don't connect. And instead I am getting to this screen below. I have no idea what to enter as my username and password. As nothing to do with my wireless network has this requirement.

I'm having a problem with my wireless network connections. Everything were working fine until this morning when I found out that my internet connections were suddenly disconnected. I tried everything, even to recover the system but still no luck. My wireless adapter (Intel Wifi Link 5300 AGN) can detect the wireless connections but can't connect. When I check the status of the hardware it was working properly.
My system is Alienware M15x with Win 7 Home Premiumx64m

A:Can't connect to the wireless network

hi and welcome to the forums this is a problem that you will see on the threads quite frequently these are some the steps i take to resolve itrun windows troubleshooterReset to DefaultResetting your router or adapter back to factory default will erase any setting changes you have made. This is done because in theory this was the setting the router or adapter used when it was in working order. Reset to default if your wireless router or adapter is not transmitting a signal. This functions like the computer restore command for a computer.In addition if your system runs Bonjour, or any other 3rd Network manager, remove them or disable them in local services

1. Click on Start button.2. Type Cmd in the Start Search text box.3. Right click cmd in search results and click run as Administrator4. Type netsh winsock reset in the Command Prompt shell, and then press the Enter key.5. Restart the computer.

1. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow

2. Type the following command, and then press ENTER:

sfc /scannow

A message will appear stating that 'The system scan will begin'. Be patient because the scan may take some time

3. If any files require a replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Windows 7 DVD for this process to continue

4. If everything is okay you should, after the scan, see the following message "Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations"

5. After the scan has completed, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

I would like to ask some help regarding a problem with my internet connection. Connecting our separate PC and my Laptop to my LAN works perfectly fine but when I use our wireless network to connect my laptop and phone, that's when the problem occurs. I tried rebooting the router (unplugging the power switch, cables and such). And I also tried rebooting my phone and laptop but nothing works. I also tried looking at the router settings and tried changing the security settings to none to see if I can connect but still cant.I just don't know what the problem is. Can you help me?Thank you.

A:Can not connect to wireless network

If the XP computer has a non-Netgear wireless network card, then this procedure may help:Configuring your wireless connection using Windows XP Wireless Zero Configuration utility

I'm using an Eeepc 900hd, just loaded windows 7 ultimate on it. My wireless driver is up to date (so it says, although I've tried to install a new driver, but it "doesn't work on this operation syste,"). I turned off my firewall, followed most of nosferatu's directions in another thread, and I can't seem to figure it out. Everything else can connect to my wireless network (ipod touch, windows xp) but this one can see my network, but when I try to connect, it fails everytime.

I tried disabling the WPA password and it didn't work.

Any other suggestions?

A:Can see but can't connect to wireless network

There were some problems reported with your bios not having wifi enabled by default. If you have the tray utility insalled just enable WiFi "WLAN" from there. If not then press F2 on startup befor the OS loads to enter the bios. It is under intergrated periferals.

I have an HP Pavilion zx5369cl laptop with Windows XP home. I would like to be able to access the internet wirelessly.

When I go to network connections, choose properties on the wireless connection, & then select Wireless networks tab, there is one wireless network listed (named korea) and it is supposed to connect automatically when available. When I click on View Wireless Networks, it says none were found in range. However, korea network is also on my desk top & it says the signal is strong & I am able to connect on my desk top. On my laptop it says to check if the wireless network switch is on or off. Where do I find that switch?

In related issue, if I change locations with my laptop, might I have to use a network other than korea? If so, how do I install another wireless network?

Thanks.

A:How To Connect To Wireless Network?

I think that older HP Pavilions had the wireless switch above the left side of the keyboard. Also, there may be a WLAN Assistant that over-rides the physical switch. I have a Pavilion from 2007 that has a slide switch on the front of the laptop and one from 2010 that has a pressure switch above the right side of the keyboard.

I have a new laptop from my school district. When at school, I am connected to our network through a docking station. When I brought it home and tried to connect to my wireless network, it doesn't give me the option to put in my network key.

A:Can't Connect to Wireless Network

First you should make sure that your router is using WPA2-AES for encryption. Most Win 7 drivers prefer this method of connection.

The links below might also help you to diagnose the problem. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/w...t-to-a-network

Are you using homegroup for networking? are there any non win 7 computers on the network?

can you type cmd in search>ipconfig /all. take a screen shot and upload it to us

I'm currently having issues connecting to my home's wireless network. All devices besides my laptop are connecting to it just fine though. The problem only started this morning, and I've already reset my wireless adapter, computer, and router a couple times. This has happened once before, and I just wiped my PC because I couldn't find a solution. I'd prefer to not do that again.

It's an Acer Aspire v5-571. Thanks in advance

EDIT: I just did a system restore and everything works fine now. This can be closed

A:Can't connect to wireless network

Look through any recent windows updates to see if around the same time an update was installed, this problem occurred: Windows Update - View Update History Details

Did anything get installed or an application update recently? Don't forget to check your antivirus for recent updates. Some 3rd party antivirus softwares can at times conflict with windows due to a faulty update, etc. Please let me know which AV you are using.

Follow this tutorial to see if it helps you in any way: Internet Troubleshooting Guide

DO make sure every driver is updated (using another computer and a USB drive, for example). If every driver is updated and you still experience problems, try installing a previous version of the wireless LAN driver.

Yesterday i was forced to clean reinstall the win7 32-bit RC as it died on me and i couldnt repair it, and now im having major problems connecting to my wireless network. I got my wireless card drivers installed all ok and when i go to connect to my network it connects saying it has limited connectivity and that the network is unidentified. I've tryed everything, assigning a static ip, changing the channel on my router, different wireless card drivers and various other things on these forums and nothing works.

btw it was working fine if slightly dodgy before i had to reinstall win7 last night. My wireless card is a NETGEAR wg311v2 (i have a newer card but it wont work on windows 7...but my older card does..go figure) and my router is a NETGEAR DG834PN

A:Cant connect to wireless network

From command prompt, type:

ipconfig /all

and see if your adapter has a valid physical address (mac) instead of all 0s or something. Recheck settings here as well.

I am having problems with the wireless adapter provided with my PC It can see my wireless router a Netgear DG M and the signal strength is excellent but it is unable to connect I either get Limited connection or no connection at all It shows quot Identifying quot in the Network map From the manual the wireless adapter is a Asus WL- GE or WL- G V Windows recognised it as a Broadcom adapter so I downloaded a Vista bit driver from Asus and installed that The adapter is now recognised as a Asus adapter but this has not made any difference to being able to connect The driver provided by Asus does seem to be quite old I think and still references Broadcom There is an Asus utility CD provided by the PC but this doesn't seem to run on Vista I have wireless network Cannot to connect had the connection work pefectly times but then the next time I reboot without changing anything it stops working For example yesterday I turned off Windows Firewall rebooted and it worked The next I booted still with the firewall disabled it didn't work It seems that the wireless card is unable to get an IP address from the router as its address is often rubbish instead of something in the range that I am expecting I have a laptop running the equivalent bit version of Vista and this has no Cannot connect to wireless network problems connecting As far as I can tell I'm not a networking expert there are no differences between the network set up on the computers What I'm trying to achieve is to have them both talking the router and each other so I can share folders and printer and synchronise the two Cannot connect to wireless network using Microsoft's SyncToy As the PC is new I've also sent this to the supplier's technical support and I will problaby post on the Asus forums as well I had a quick look there but haven't found a solution Thanks Oliver

The network itself is fine, as both my desktop computer and the laptop can access it. We have, however, another laptop that is having trouble connecting to the network.

The network key has already been entered into the "properties" tab, and the proper security type has also been selected (WPA with AES) so in short, the two computers have no issue whatsoever when connecting to it, but when I attempt to do it on the other laptop, it always comes up saying "Windows cannot connect to the network"

Right this is driving me absolutely insane and I can't find any kind of solution so i'll be thorough I have a Dell dimension running XP I haven't used it in a while because it wouldn't connect to the internet so I left it alone I believed this was because I uninstalled the card by accident Anyway last week I decided I'd format it's hard drive and re-install network connect to Won't wireless a XP and then all the drivers and get it working again All went well but even with the fully installed card it still wont connect all I get in the network connections window is it goes 'Automatic acquiring network address Automatic' over and over again My ISP is Sky and the router is that little black one it's either Netgear DG G or Sagem F st they both look the same and it works fine connecting perfectly to vista laptops a mac a PSP and an xbox with no hiccups Anyway so I figured that maybe the network card is broken it's a netgear mps -bit PCI card WG v Won't connect to a wireless network and bought today a peak II II Won't connect to a wireless network b g mps card and installed etc No problems with the install it picks up the Won't connect to a wireless network network etc but gives me the exact same not connecting problem with both the windows network connections and it's own wireless utility the other card was the same Please help me if you can get this working i'll be forever in your debt

A:Won't connect to a wireless network

If the wireless can see the network , then you have to turn the key (so to speak) . Check your logon and wep/wap. Right click on the network icon in the taskbar.

There is an internal wireless network that uses WPA2-Enterprise with PEAP. I am unable to connect to the wireless network, unless I manually add the network and tell it not to validate the server certificate.

No other computers experience this. I believe that the certificate was changed recently and I didn't have problems before that, so I would think that my computer is still using that old certificate and is why it isn't working.

I tried finding the certificate and removing it, but I don't think I really know how to do that. Any help would be appreciated.
